"Borrowing it without asking me is stealing." Theobald says. "And that one book is of no use to anyone. The rest of the set it was in vanished decades ago."

"So what could have happened? Books don't vanish for no reason."

Theobald seems lost in thought. "What if...stealing this book was all part of that horrible mess the other night?"

"Perhaps. Yet what use it would be to anyone? What kind of person would need it?"

"Someone with the power to make a lame man walk again." Theobald is quiet. "Someone who could use the blood of a man to battle Hollis Clegane himself."

"What kind of man would that be?" Ragnar wondered. "You speak of sorcery. I have never met such a man."

"Nor I. But, they apparently exist. I have heard the followers of Rh'lorr have some among their number with some small abilities beyond mortal ken...but not on such a scale. Never on such a scale. I didn't think Old Valyria had such knowledge." He looks concerned.

"So what can be done about it?" Ragnar asked. "is there no way to track a thief?"

"We need more information. I have no knowledge of who masterminded this attack, or of much of that night. We were buttoned up in here, surrounded by guards and listening to the chaos."

Ragnar considered.
"Is there likely to be a danger in future, then?"

"If this sorcerer has that kind of power...there's no telling what he could plan, Lord Drumm. He may not have limits given enough time." Theobald shook his head. "But I am not the best to ask about this."

"Who, then?" Ragnar asked. "It's all new to me. I like to read - strange for one of my people, I know - but I've never read anything about all this."

"No one has for hundreds of years." Theobald shakes his head. "You'd need the archmaesters in Oldtown or the wise men of Braavos or New Valyria to unravel this, m'lord. It is quite beyond me."

"Indeed. Can any man simply speak to the archmaesters?" Ragnar asked, reasoning that at least Oldtown was closer than Braavos or New Valyria.

"Probably not. But, perhaps Lord Drumm of the Iron Islands..especially if you perhaps find more information out. I know that you didn't have the only adventure that night. The stories are too numerous to count." Theobald considers. "I could send a raven, letting them know your need is urgent."
